Very sorry to hear that. I used to cross paths with Tony when I was trying to cut a dash on the Englisg Country music scene in the 1970's.

Tony was a really established act. He was always friendly, but we were from different eras. English country music at the time was stuck in a bit of w time warp.

He was a real gentleman, always friendly, always attired in perfect country music gear. He had a fine voice and played an Ovation guitar.
He'd been there from the skiffle era and even before and his presentation wa totally professional.
